Yogi Paliwal started comedy in 2008 at the young age of 18. He left stand up to pursue love and education, but when those roads closed he decided to focus more on standup comedy.

In his few years in the Seattle comedy scene he has performed at the Bridgetown Comedy Festival, The FunnyFest Calgary Comedy Festival, a finalist in the 96.5 Make Jack Laugh comedy competition and he made it to the Seattle NBC Standup for Diversity Showcase. Carl Warmenhoven the manager of the Comedy Underground has said, “He has a youthness about him.”

If you were to ask Yogi how he would describe his comedy he would say it’s “Intellectual absurdity.” If you asked him what that means he would say, “My material isn’t smart, but you need to be smart to see how stupid the joke is.”
